Look me

Into my eyes and tell me

You can’t see how much I care.

I’m reaching out to you and yet you seem to not see the truth.

Or maybe you don’t want to face it during the time.

Or ever for you are not the one to take a risk.

Even though you know it will work out for you’re all about the numbers.

But as the clock clicks on you just stand there with no concern insight of making that move.

And I begin to wonder if waiting is worth it if the light slowly fades with the hope inside of me.

For it’s been a long time coming and now with just one reach, the gap between us could finally be over.
